    What features make a good LCD monitor?

    I'm about to buy an LCD monitor, as it is said it has no radiation and this is better for the eyes.
    But I see in brochures features of it, and I don't know what makes an LCD monitor better than another one, anyone can explain briefly? Thanks

      Just a couple pointers:

      1.) Small footprint.

      2.) Slim design.

      3.) Reasonable refresh rates (LCD's don't really need high refresh rates, since they're different from monitors-- But the higher it is, the sharper and cleaner fonts will be).

      4.) A good image contrast ratio (~350:1)

          Contrast ratio is the main thing to look out for in terms of specs.

              One of the best monitors for the price: Dell 1800FP

              A great monitor, and you can get it for a relative cheap price now on eBay.
